Mandelbrot equations are very popular for generating images and music. We propose to use them for generating mobile ring tones. These mandelbrot ring tones are both entertaining and melodious. As the computations required for generating melodious mandelbrot tones are simple iterations, the ring tone generator can be integrated with the mobile handset. The Fuzzy Mandelbrot sets are proposed for extending the usefulness of the ring tone generator. This ring tone generator is personalized by using the audiogram. People with hearing impairment will benefit by the personalized ring tone generator. A PC based mobile phone ring tone generator demo is being developed based on the Nokia series 60 SDK for Symbian OS mobile handsets. This will be used for demonstrating the concepts proposed in this paper.
